Okay, screw it, I'm starting a thread with 1 action I'm taking every day between now & the election to deal with ALL THE CRISES right now. Today: calling my Senators in support of this. Pinning this, & will update daily! https://twitter.com/350action/status/1305571389232029697
Today: made a small donation to @audubonsociety to support their bird conservation & climate change work. (One small bit of activism every day until the election!)
Continuing my one small bit of activism every day until the election - hopefully this one isn't a cop out, but today I supported independent, nonprofit journalism by renewing my subscription to @highcountrynews!

I wrote more #PostcardsToVoters the past couple days, but I've decided to end this thread here; I'm sure I'll keep doing stuff, but putting pressure on myself to do something & post daily has been more stressful than helpful lately. Please remember to VOTE!
